Interesting to see the desks of other crafters. My actual working space seems to shrink every time I do anything so that I end up working on a really tiny area surrounded by clutter. A constant battle to keep it tidy!!

I think you got foxed by last week's link at #16 which was my second boo boo trying to link up via my tablet after a complete disaster @ #4! This week's is actually #17 - BJ Thanks for commenting on last week which you might have intended anyway. Happy WOYWW BJ #17

Enjoyed seeing your desk...still looks pretty tidy to me. Love what you're showing with the stenciled bird. This is going to be a really unique & so pretty element on your card. Never thought of what you've done with the stencil, but it works so well for a special look. TFS

I notice your stencils. I have a lot of those kind, before we started getting plastic ones for mixed media and such. Now, down't really know how to use those. Especially now that we have embossing folders. Love your little birdie. Than you for your earlier visit. I appreciate it. #54

Lovely, Barb. I haven't seen metal stencils for quite a while. I love the little bird, and your colours are gorgeous.

Thank you for your encouraging comment - I am sure I will master it in the end. My hubby says he's only got red humbrol paint, which isn't a lot of use to me since I'm painting on a red background lol! I've got one more paint avenue to try before I start trawling Ebay for humbrols.

I like the metal stencils - I find the metal ones are much easier for spreading texture paste through but are harder to find as most stencils are plastic. I shall have to keep my eyes open for Stampendous! I like the pretty card in the background, looks like you have a lot on the go! Thanks for the visit to mine earlier, I hope you have a great week,Diana #28

First of all thanks for visiting me yesterday whilst I was out and about.Enjoy your crafting time with Wendy - and maybe we both will share another week what we did with our friends. Lovely work with the stencils!Hugs, Neet 5 xx

Hi Barb,Have you tried that Bo Bunny glitter paste with your stencils? I haven't ... yet, but it's on my shopping list. Do you like your Inktense pencils? My husband gave me the biggest set (in the wooden box!) for my birthday last year. They take up a lot of room on a desk! Thanks for dropping by earlier. Much appreciated.

Thanks for the visit earlier - ticks are going on my to do list now!!Love that little bird, very clever. I have Inktense pencils as well, love them.Take care and have a good weekChristine Bishopsmate #30
